Emperor Phoenix Policy: Feng Qingtian

Chapter 373

The corners of Feng Jin's mouth curved up even more, and her smile became firmer, "The road ahead is too difficult, I don't just want to laugh, I want to laugh till the end!"

After all, Feng Jin didn't laugh for a long time. That night, a piercing sound of a horn woke her up from her dream.

Just as she was about to get up to call Ling Lan, the deputy leader had already rushed in and lit a candle, "Your Majesty, the Xiongnu army is attacking at night!"

"what?"

Feng Jin's complexion changed drastically. Ling Lan helped her quickly put on her clothes and armor. Feng Jin walked out of the handsome tent, only to see the torches in the distance lighting up the entire sky, and the sound of turbulent horseshoes shaking the ground. Even the ground under Feng Jin's feet trembled slightly.

"What's going on? Why is there no news? Where's the scout looking for news?"

Feng Jin asked sharply, and the deputy leader's thick eyebrows were tightly frowned, "I haven't had any scouts come to the barracks all day today, I'm afraid someone is doing tricks and intercepting and killing them..."

Just thinking about it, Feng Jin knew who was playing tricks, Dayan Tang!
Dayan Tang belonged to the Xuanyuan royal family back then, so naturally they knew which route the scouts from the imperial court took and what signs they had. They didn't do anything before because they didn't want to expose themselves. Now, they think that they have the chance to win and don't care about being completely exposed?

Feng Jin was trembling with anger, this Great Yantang was really lingering, and the plots and schemes were hard to guard against, but they couldn't catch them, and they couldn't find their lair.

In just a few moments, General Tang has already organized the army. During the recent period, Feng Jin has been issuing strict orders that the entire army be prepared for battle at twelve hours a day, day and night. Good army, the Huns have already killed them.

"Your Majesty, the last general is willing to lead the troops into battle!"

General Tang knelt on one knee in front of Feng Jin, and said forcefully.

Qi Che was not there, General Tang was the highest-ranking general in the entire army, as a person in the army, Feng Jin didn't want him to fight, and wanted to save him until the last moment before letting him fight, but seeing the menacing Xiongnu in the distance Da Jun could only nod his head and said, "Yes!"

General Tang held up his big sword, jumped on the horse, and said loudly, "Brothers! Come with this general! Kill all the Huns and drive them back!"

"Kill all the Huns!"

The whole army is full of ambition and pride, and the people are brave.

Most of the Xiongnu were cavalry, and most of the Dazhou were infantry. The infantry had little chance of winning against cavalry. Fortunately, Yaozhou was mountainous, and the power of the Xiongnu's cavalry was limited, so they could fight.

The first wave of attacks lasted all night from midnight to dawn before the Huns retreated.

When General Tang came to report to Feng Jin covered in blood, Feng Jin asked him to go down to rest without asking anything.

General Tang was a little surprised, "Your Majesty won't ask about the military situation?"

"You don't need to ask, I'm watching."

Feng Jin smiled slightly, and General Tang showed guilt, "In this battle, our side suffered over 1000 casualties, while the Xiongnu only killed or injured more than [-] people. The last general, the last general, is ashamed of His Majesty."

"It's okay. It's just the beginning. The Xiongnu's army is coming so fiercely that we are caught off guard. There are more casualties than them. It is understandable. General Tang doesn't need to think too much. Go down and have a good rest. There is still a tough battle to fight."

General Tang thanked him and withdrew.

As soon as he left, the smile on Feng Jin's face disappeared. The terrain of Yaozhou did not exert its power as it should. The Xiongnu army seemed to be familiar with the terrain. The main battlefield was located in a valley, and that place was flat. Very well, it just avoided the rugged mountain road, so that the power of the iron cavalry can be maximized.

No need to think too much, it must be Dayan Tang who is playing tricks. Day Yantang really spared no effort to subvert Da Zhou, and even contributed the topographic map of Da Zhou to the Xiongnu!
Why didn't they think about it, even if they regained the throne and the Xiongnu got the topographic map of the Great Zhou, which is equivalent to controlling the veins of this land, don't they worry about the Huns coming back?
In this battle, although the casualties of Da Zhou's army were several times that of the opponent's, General Tang had already done his best, so Feng Jin did not blame him, but comforted him not to take victory or defeat seriously.

However, in the future, we can no longer fight like this. The main battlefield must be pulled out, and the Huns' army must be led into the mountains.

The Xiongnu know the terrain, so they are unlikely to be fooled, how can they be lured?
From day to night, Feng Jin discussed with the generals for a long time, but still couldn't come up with a useful solution.

When the night fell, the Huns blew their horns again and launched an attack. For some reason, the Huns liked to fight at night.

Countless burning torches illuminated the entire sky red. Feng Jin stood on the hillside, watching the horses neighing in the distance, and his brows were tightened. This time, the Xiongnu sent out at least [-] troops. It seems that yesterday's battle was just to find out the truth, and the troops have been increased today, can't we wait?

This time it was still General Tang who led the troops to fight with [-] troops. He was worthy of being a brave general under Li Yi.

With the previous experience and Feng Jin's advice to avoid flat places as much as possible, General Tang was not drawn into the valley by the Xiongnu army, and kept the main battlefield at the outskirts of the valley.

From dark to dawn, the battle was fought all night.

This time, more than 2 people were killed and injured in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and more than 1 people were killed and injured by the Huns.

Although the gap between casualties has narrowed, the situation is still not optimistic.

I heard that Prince Mage, the eldest prince of the Eastern Huns who led the army this time, did not appear in the two battles.

It seems that the Huns are still waiting for the time, what time?
Feng Jin originally thought that the third wave of attack, the Xiongnu would also choose at night, but who knew, Feng Jin hadn't finished his breakfast yet, General Tang had just returned to the tent to lie down, when the horn of attack sounded again.

Looking at the overwhelming army, Feng Jin's face was very ugly, the Xiongnu came out in full force.

This time, Prince Maggot finally appeared. He was riding on a war horse, and the scimitar in his hand shone coldly in the afternoon sun. Behind him were rows of uniform cavalry.

It seems that the Huns don't want to wait any longer.

After two consecutive night battles, General Tang looked very tired, his eyes were red, and there were blue-gray shadows under his eyes. When the horn sounded, he immediately got up from the bed and rushed out with the big knife that had been with him for many years. .

But when he asked the queen to fight, the queen rejected him without saying a word, and ordered a fourth-rank general to lead the army to fight.

"Your Majesty, the Xiongnu are coming in a menacing manner. It seems that they are going to fight us to the death. Why doesn't Your Majesty let the last general fight?"

General Tang opened his red eyes and said anxiously.

Feng Jin looked at his exhausted expression, "This battle won't be over for a while, General Tang, go back and rest first, and take over from General Lu after you have rested."

The rest of the generals also persuaded General Tang to go to rest one after another. General Tang was not willing to go to rest, he insisted on fighting, Feng Jin made up his mind, no matter what he said, he just said: No!
General Tang had no choice but to rest.

General Lu was about the same age as General Tang, and he was a fourth-rank general. Although he was not as brave as General Tang, he was still a rare fierce general, but his opponent was Prince Mage who was known as the number one warrior on the grassland...

It stands to reason that General Tang is the best to fight, but General Tang's physical strength has reached the limit, and he is prone to accidents now.

Feng Jin had no choice but to let General Lu fight.

The horn of war sounded, and the Huns were really in a hurry. This time, they didn't go to the valley, but went to war with Dazhou directly in the mountains.

It's just that there are only 7 soldiers in the Great Zhou Dynasty who can go to the battlefield, while the Xiongnu has almost 9 people, not to mention 2 fewer soldiers. In addition, General Lu is slightly worse than General Tang, and the opponent is calling for the battle. The most powerful Prince Mage and the commander-in-chief all came out, and the Hun soldiers were already eager to try, and they couldn't wait, and their morale was soaring.

Feng Jin was very uncertain, but she still tried her best to encourage General Lu, motivate the whole army, and boost Da Zhou's morale.

From morning to afternoon, although Da Zhou tried his best to support him, he was still retreating steadily. General Lu was shot off his horse by an arrow from Prince Mag, seriously injured and unconscious, and was carried back to the camp.

As soon as General Lu was injured, his morale plummeted. Feng Jin had no choice but to order a truce. The two sides temporarily ceased fighting. There were wounded soldiers everywhere in Da Zhou's army. Seeing the Queen patrolling the entire army, the soldiers greeted her one after another.

"All free."

Prince Mag is worthy of being the number one warrior of the Huns. In this battle, Da Zhou suffered more casualties, while the Huns had almost no casualties.

Feng Jin looked at the military newspaper, and the more she read it, the more frightened she became.

At this time, excluding the wounded soldiers, there were only 5 soldiers left in Dazhou who could fight, while the Xiongnu still had more than 8 soldiers.

If the fight continues like this, all the [-] troops will have to collapse here.

Feng Jin put down the military report, and called Imperial Physician Liu in, "I want to fight, is there a way?"
